Dancing with the Stars 7: Week 7
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars,
On this week’s episode of Dancing with the Stars, the producers had one more surprise in store for both the competitors and the audience.
In addition to their solo numbers, the six pairs had to perform in the first team dance. After being split into two groups of three (captains Warren Sapp and Susan Lucci were responsible for the assignments), the teams were then charged with working together on an ensemble performance. Unlike last Monday’s previous group hip hop number, these two performances - a Cha Cha Cha and a Paso Doble - were actually being scored. (Those scores would then be added to the individual totals.)
Who showed us they could work in unison…and who still needed work on their solos? Read on!
